"Glass Half Full" lyrics

"Glass Half Full"

I keep thinking 'pon the time that I took pennies from a purse
And in that final breath I felt the wear that makes the worse
Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
With an arrow through my heart, I swear I gave it all to you

I travelled with a suitcase full of cash and memories
And I bought that velvet suit hoping that you'd believe in me
Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
But in a turn of fate I won it on the horse Catch-22

Yes, I left you high and dry
No one sees the tears I cry
Ain't it funny how the world can turn its back on playing true
It's the same thing stopping me from saying I love you

You told me over many moons that love would make me stay
But in her warm embrace I turned and threw it all away
Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
But without a glass half empty how do you know yours is full?
Without a glass half empty how do you know yours is full?

Yes, I left you high and dry
No one sees the tears I cry
Ain't it funny how the world can turn its back on playing true
It's the same thing stopping me from saying I love you

I've spent so many months in places dark and places cold
And I keep on tryin' to teach myself some peace for when I'm old
Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
But without a glass half empty how do you know yours is full?

Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
But without a glass half empty how do you know yours is full?
Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
But without a glass half empty how do you know yours is full?
Yes, I'm a thief, that much is true
But without a glass half empty how do you know yours is full?
